I don't see that it's 'ideological' to have accessible, regular public spaces.
Also, the opportunity for great efficiency in transport ... either public or private I don't care that much as long as it works well.
- TheCoelacanth 8y agoRight, there should be accessible public spaces: sidewalks, buses and subways. The kind that can actually be provided in amounts sufficient to allow everyone to use it. Roads are inherently too limited in space to be usable by everyone in Manhattan. The people who get the privilege of using that space should be paying a fair price for it.
- sonnyblarney 8y ago"Roads are inherently too limited in space to be usable by everyone in Manhattan." This is simply not true. With a little bit of intelligence things can be changed. Such as: allowing only smaller cars, getting rid of taxis or limos, having very fast 'above ground' public-ish transport etc..
- TheCoelacanth 8y agoNo, that is pure fantasy. Manhattan is already insanely congested with only 25% of commuters traveling by car. There is no way you could possibly get four times that number into the same amount of space.
